April's Top Ten Monthly Rainfall Totals

In much the same way that January and February vastly differed from month to month, you can add March and April to that list. Many areas finished March with precipitation deficits of one to two inches. April, however, has not only recaptured that deficit, but has also added a surplus to the monthly and seasonal totals. At only half way through the month Grand Rapids, Lansing and Muskegon are not far from being included in the top ten wettest Aprils.
